We may have the opportunity to move to a new state in 2022. Looking at real estate in the area where we would move, nothing has us excited - and we're sick of living in suburbs - so we're considering buying land and building. We wouldn't be able to afford a true homestead, but could get at least 1-2 acres.

Has anyone here bought a plot and built a house before? Any pitfalls to look out for? Would you build again or buy in the future?

M. Domes have survived 5 ton bunker buster bombs intact. Tornadoes/high winds flow right past their round shapes while resisting debris perfectly. The steel reinforced concrete won't burn in a wildfire, and the insides stay cool. Won't float away in a flood and can be waterproofed. They surf over earthquakes as self contained uniform units. I don't see zombies clawing their way in either,lol.
